abstract="Conventional formulae for flows of hot gases from openings in a compartment on fire are presented in a way which may well simplify the correlation of data for a wide range of conditions.The paper also establishes a context into which the McCaffrey-Quintiere regression formula (McCaffrey, B. J., Quintiere, J. G. and Harkleroad, M. Fire Technol., 17 (1981)2) for the upper layer gas temperature can be fitted and the distortions of conventional scaling laws, reported by Blay et al. (Blay, D., Turhault, J. L. and Jourbert, P. Modelling Smoke Movement in Corridors. New Technology to Reduce Fire Losses and Costs, ed. S.J. Grayson and D.A. Smith. Elsevier Applied Science, Barking, 1986) can be explained.   <p>Language: en</p>",
